Yeah, there is the dodgy method of helping your class after the SAC, in order to secure first ranking. Assuming they perform better in the exam, that would give you a major advantage; though, at the same time, it is incredibly sly. Just give yourself and everyone else the best possible chance; as I pointed out earlier, your moderated SAC mark can only increase given no one performs worse in the exam or SAC's.

To be honest i wouldnt give a crap what other tell me after my sac. I would rather them explain to me whats on the next sac lol. I have the "fk it, its done" attitude.

A lot of people would see it that way. But in most instances that is a fallacious belief; the content will reappear on an exam.

EDIT:
cont. above:
Also, remember this work is not only for an exam, you will benefit from actually knowing it. Rather than waiting till it is "over".

I just realised this is incorrect; if first ranking is obtained you are only dependent, at least in theory, on the best exam performance. Anything other than first ranking is influenced by the entire cohort.


But as I said already: try your best, you'll get what you deserve. Also, don't be afraid to help, it can only advance yourself; both intellectually and numerically(ATAR etc...). Remember: don't make this year only about score; there is so much more than that to life.
